== Model Description ==

The Zee-Babu model extends the Standard Model (SM) by two complex scalars, {{{k--}}} and {{{h-}}}.
Neither carries color or weak isospin but both are charged under weak hypercharge. {{{k--}}} and {{{h-}}} carry the electric charges {{{Q_k=-2}}} and {{{Q_h=-1}}}, respectively, and both are assigned lepton number {{{L=+2}}}. This is normalized such that SM leptons carry {{{L=+1}}}.

In terms of the SM Lagrangian {{{L_SM}}}}, the Lagrangian of the Zee-Babu model  {{{LZB}}} is
{{{ 
#!latex 
\begin{align}
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
 \mathcal{L}_{\rm ZB} = \mathcal{L}_{\rm SM} + \mathcal{L}_{\rm Kin.} + \mathcal{L}_{\rm Yuk.} + \mathcal{L}_{\rm ZB\ scalar}
 + \delta\mathcal{L}_{\nu}
 \ .
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
\end{align}
}}}



The kinetic part of the Lagrangian for $k$ and $h$ is given by the following covariant derivatives
{{{
#!latex 
\begin{align}
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
  \mathcal{L}_{\rm Kin.} = (D_\mu k)^\dagger (D^\mu k) + (D_\mu h)^\dagger (D^\mu h), 
  \quad\text{with}\quad
  D_\mu = \partial_\mu +i g_Y \hat{Y} B_\mu\ .
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
\end{align}
}}}
Here, the weak hypercharge operator is normalized such that the electromagnetic charge operator is
{{{Q=T+Y}}} and {{{Y_k = -2 (Y_h = -1)}}}. 



The Yukawa part describes the coupling of SM leptons to {{{k--}}} and {{{h-}}}. It is given by
{{{
#!latex 
\begin{align}
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
 \mathcal{L}_{\rm Yuk.} & \ ~  = 
 f_{ij}\ \overline{\tilde{L}^i} L^j h^\dagger
 +
 g_{ij}\ \overline{(e_R^c)^i} e_R^j k^\dagger + \text{H.c.}
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
\end{align}
}}}

The scalar potential for {{{k--}}} and {{{h-}}}, including couplings to the SM Higgs doublet {{{Phi}}}, is given by
{{{
#!latex 
\begin{align}
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
- \mathcal{L}_{\rm ZB\ scalar} &=\ 
\tilde{m}_k^2 k^\dagger k  +\ \tilde{m}_h^2 h^\dagger h\
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
+\ \lambda_k (k^\dagger k)^2\ +\ \lambda_{h} (h^\dagger h)^2\
+\ \lambda_{hk} (k^\dagger k)(h^\dagger h)\
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
\nonumber\\
&
+\ \left(\mu_{\not L}\ h h k^\dagger + \text{H.c.}\right)\
+\ \lambda_{kH} (k^\dagger k) \Phi^\dagger \Phi\ 
+\ \lambda_{hH} (h^\dagger h) \Phi^\dagger \Phi 
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
\ .
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
\end{align}
}}}
After EWSB, the physical masses of {{{k--}}} and {{{h-}}} are, respectively,
{{{ 
#!latex 
\begin{align}
m_k^2 = \tilde{m}^2_k + \frac{\lambda_{kH}}{2}v^2
\quad\text{and}\quad 
m_h^2 = \tilde{m}^2_h + \frac{\lambda_{hH}}{2}v^2
\ .
\end{align}
}}} 
The parameter {{{mu}}} has mass dimension {{{GeV}}} and the {{{h-h-k}}} vertex violates lepton number conservation.

Light neutrino masses are generated at two loops. They are described by {{{\delta\mathcal{L}_\nu}}}. 
To phenomenologically parameterize the Lagrangian, neutrinos are assumed to be massless in the UFO. This allows all {{{f}}} and {{{g}}} to be taken independently from one another.

* '''Note''' that {{{k^dagger = k++}}} and {{{h^dagger = h+}}}.

* '''Note''' that this model permits lepton flavor violation and lepton number violation.



== QCD Corrections ==
The above Lagrangian with Goldstone boson couplings and in the Feynman Gauge was implemented into FeynRules  2.3.36. QCD renormalization and R2 rational counter terms were determined using NLOCT 1.02 and FeynArts 3.11. Feynman rules were collected into a single UFO, available below. 
In the default UFO, five massless quarks are assumed as well as a CKM matrix equal to the identity matrix.
For additional details, see [ [#Ruiz 4] ] and references therein.
These additions permit tree-level calculations at LO and NLO in QCD and loop-induced calculations at LO in QCD using MadGraph_aMC@NLO.


== Model Files ==
'''Note:''' The only difference between NLO and LO libraries is the presence of additional (effective) O(a_s) Feynman rules. By definition the NLO libraries can compute tree-level processes at LO precision.
